5.0

I absolutely love Nona & you will too. This book brings together the happenings of Gideon & Harrow in a way that ties the overarching story together to make sense of a lot of things we weren't clear on before. Part mystery, part found family adventure, part self reflection on how to tell who you really are--this book will leave fans of The Locked Tomb both satisfied and dying for more. 

I will write a more in-depth review after Nona is published but I have sworn on the Locked Tomb & the Emperor Undying that I won't give any spoilers. I will say that this book is absolutely worth the preorder & you should do that without hesitation.
